for the love of mind

for the love of mind

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto
"

inspired by Dr. YumnaKay's recent post...

"
for the love of mind


kiss me sinfully,
as i touch your tree of knowledge
gardens grow love ephemeral
and roses only petal briefly
so let us dance in naked moonlight
as long as the summer's breeze
cheers us with wafts of engagement

i will press the experience between pages
and a tactile reflection of us
will always be preserved
long after the apples have fallen
from the tree.

Value the exciting experiences shared. Preserve them like sweetest rose petals pressed gently between the pages of life! memories to be recalled at random. Thank you for sharing this beautiful piece.

Feels like a nice day with the growing tree, thats forever breathing.
Thanks for sharing this. It feels free, natural.
Sounds of a song ,in praise of a beautiful mind.

An ephemeral kind of love but still something we all like to dip ourselves into. And not too wrong either if we get eternal memories out of it, I suppose..
I too am inspired by this write of yours, Jacob. Lovely to read.

Though typically clever, lovely and touching, as well.
December love that, apparently, still yearns for July heat.
A high quality post!

Life is indeed short and time precious, thus we must dance and take advantage of it before it is simply a memory. And we need memories to treasure to store for those winter years. As always an allegory full of the best descriptive fillings for us to devour Jacob.
